24 | Ground Breaking Information

"Ouch! What did I do?" Kunot-noo akong tiningnan ni Wyatt habang kurot ko ang kanyang mga braso. He looks extremely devastated and clueless of what he did.

Ang tanga niya naman kasi.

Pwedeng-pwede niyang tanggihan ang paratang ko at sabihin na may kaibigan siyang may sikretong kalaguyo at 'di siya.

Look at the damage he did!

I'm sure Zach just acted cool awhile ago because Privo's in front of him. Tingnan natin mamaya kung ano ang magiging parusa sa sinabi niyang 'Fling lang po... I mean she was my fuckbuddy, Zach... Tikim lang, ganon'.

"Hindi mo pa talaga alam ang ginawa mo ah?"

"It was your fault, Zuri! You said I had a secret relationship with someone. But the truth is, I have never been attracted before!" Humahalukipkip pa siya sa pwesto, blaming me the whole sitch that we got in.

"Oh, wow! You still have the audacity to lie, Wyatt? You have never been attracted before? Then how come I've seen you kissed a girl at the back of the gym?!"

Mukha naman siyang nagulat sa iniungkat kong impormasyon.

It was the last day of our 2nd year in college when I saw him smooching with a mystery girl after his Basketball practice.

Naalala ko pa noon na nakaramdam ako nang pagkailang dahil sa nakita. His hand was all over the girl's uniform and the gross green grass!

It was that day I realized how cheap Wyatt is. He had his first kiss in a place where green thumbs used to make their Takakura Compost!

Hindi ko nalang sinabi sa kanya o sa mga pinsan ko dahil naiilang ako.

"That was pure lust! And that was only one time! At bakit ba galit ka sa sinabi kong fuckbuddy e ako naman ang mapapagalitan? And let's get back to the information that Privo is your ex! That's even a graver mistake, Zuri! Walang panama niyan sa isang halik ko sa isang babae!"

I wanted to tell him the truth that Privo wasn't my ex. He was my fuckbuddy for years and my childhood ex-fiancé.

Our story was way back and bringing this again would just worsen my already scarred memories.

"Let's face the truth, Wyatt. Ako yung mas mapapagalitan dahil babae ako. You know their minds, right? They would immediately insinuate I gave myself to my boyfriend even though there's a chance that I didn't. Lalake ka kaya 'di masyadong big deal kung nawala na iyang virginity mo."

Umupo na lamang ako sa sofa niya at napabuntong-hininga.

Sa unang araw ko rito sa Pilipinas ay nakita ko na si Jericho, Privo's best friend. The second day, I met Sebastian Severiano, Privo's brother. And now, the third day, he's here.

Hindi ko talaga napagtanto na baka unang sign na si Jericho na dapat umalis ako palayo sa kanila. Here comes the stupid me who ignored the second signal: Sebastian, that was quite obvious. Inintay ko pa talagang magikatlong-araw para gumising sa katotohanan.

"Hey, cheer up, okay? Hindi naman nila alam ang nakaraan e. Ako lang, hindi ba? And I will always protect you even though we both broke the rules."

Umupo siya sa tabi ko at ibinigay ang kanyang bisig. I hugged him for a bit and completely calmed myself.

Matagal na akong 'di nakaramdam ng ganito kaligtas. My mind is always preoccupied with thoughts I shouldn't be thinking. Palagi lang akong nagtatago at takot na malaman nila ang totoo.
